Tasty hearty food.

Definitely going to keep and try some of these recipes. Really tasty food and love the freshness and healthy dishes made. One small comment. I cook tagine a lot and there is no way that tagine was cooked with that lid on. A bigger tagine pot was needed. Some of the translation could be better.

Maroccan cuisine

As usual many mistakes between written recipes and the video Khubz recipes is in tbsp and cups and in other recipes you have metric and imperial mixed, please stick to the metric system, ATM is very confusing
